What it’s like
The place. Quemado is a very small community in Maverick County, Texas, with far fewer residents than the towns around it. Homes here are valued below what is typical across much of the country, and household incomes across the county run lower than the national picture. Winters are mild and short, while summers are long and very hot.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in restaurants and hotels, or in government. Across Maverick County, some of the largest workplaces are Eagle Pass ISD, H-E-B and Fort Duncan Medical Center. Unemployment across the county has eased from a year earlier, and the county has added jobs over the past year.
Things to do. Fort Duncan, one of the older military sites in the area, is a longer drive away and is worth a visit for those who enjoy local history. Fort Clark is another fort a longer drive away. Pinto Creek, a river, is also a longer drive from town and offers a quieter outing in a dry part of the state.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Quemado’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively high. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Maverick County and the Eagle Pass, TX metro.
